I have a PPTP VPN server at home running on a linux 12.04 server.
Connecting to this server works like a charm from Android phones/tablets, I-phone (IOS versions before they stopped supporting PPTP), and win10.
I use this primarily to get IP adress from my home country when needed.
Anyway, my first issue was after installing Ubuntu 17.10 on a PC.
Experienced all the above mentioned issues, except that whatever I try to do with "Store password for all users" does not help.
Not working for me at all.

Ended up setting up the VPN connection from command-line using the following tutorial: https:/ /help.my- private- network. co.uk/support/ solutions/ articles/ 8452-pptp- vpn-setup- on-linux- ubuntu- via-terminal- command- line
Now I actually get connected to my server using pon <mynetworkname>, but DNS does not work.
I can open webpages typing in ip-address directly, and when I run traceroute, traffic appears to be going through my home network.
In /etc/ppp/ the 2 nameservers I have configured on server appears in resolv.conf
Any idea before I go mad?
